Oak Ridge hosted it's final 2011 youth tennis tournament with players from Knoxville, Maryville and Oak Ridge participating. Two singles divisions for boys and girls were available to entrants for players 10 and under and players 8 and under.

Participants used the 36-foot and 60-foot courts required by the United States Tennis Association for these age groups. Eli White won events in the boy's 10 and under tournament. Eli is an Oak Ridger who has competed in four of the youth tournaments held in Oak Ridge this year. The sponsors of the tennis tournaments -- the Oak Ridge Tennis Club, the Oak Ridge Visitor's and Convention Bureau, Baseline Sports Construction, Chick-fil-A and Rush -- hope to make this an annual event for young tennis players in the area.
